Naming of generated .zip files from product [message #646534]

Hi all,
I'm currently creating the build for the proposed eclipse RTP project.
So, first of all I want to say that it's pretty easy to create an
eclipse based build with tycho, good job!

But I'm stumbling with one issue regarding the naming of the created
product .zip files. i can explain this using the tycho-demo/itp04-rcp
example. When you run this build two zip file will be created. The name
of one of this files is:

example.product.id-linux.gtk.x86.zip

That's not what I need for my zip files. I need a format like this:

example.product.id-<version>-<buildType>-incubation-linux.gtk.x86-.zip

I searched a while for a solution but I can't find one. Can somebody
tell me how to affect the name of this archived zip files? Thanks in
advance.

Regards Holger

for now you will have to rename the zip file in a post-build step (e.g.
using maven antrun plugin).

Not sure if we should make this configurable as we have potentially several
products and file names have to be unique across all configured
environments.
Once installed/deployed to a maven repo, the file name is always changed
anyway by maven to standard

<artifactid>-<version>-<classifier>.<extension>

which can't be configured as this is how maven locates artifacts.

Best Regards,
Jan

Holger/Jan,

Can you point us to where RTP is exactly using this? I have so far seen no
further update on my question regarding the examples or automatically
deploying to an update site from Maven/Hudson with Tycho.

It works rather well manually for UOMo and the feature is also visually
integrated with Eclipse now, but having either the ZIP archive of that
feature or an update site built by Hudson would be great.

TIA,
Werner Keil | UOMo Lead

Hi Werner,
RTP uses the assembly plugin to name the zip files and exclude some
files from the product during the install phase.

Just take a look at the pom.xml of the products in our repository:
http://git.eclipse.org/c/rtp/org.eclipse.rtp.git/

Hope this helps,

Regards Holger
